We are delighted to invite you to the HREA Work Festival taking place in Lagos on April 1 – 2, 2020 at the Landmark Centre, Victoria Island. Two exciting days will bring together more than 2,000 people from diverse industries for forward-thinking learning, networking and entertainment to explore how to find success in the new era.

As we enter a new decade, the threat of automation and job loss, a ballooning emphasis on technology skills and an increasingly tight labour market are changing the landscape of today’s workforce and ushering in a new era — a fourth industrial revolution. Businesses and employees alike need to get ahead of change. The time to prepare for the Fourth Industrial Revolution is now!
